FREETOWN, Sierra Leone — Liberia is making some progress in containing the Ebola outbreak, while the crisis in Sierra Leone is going to get worse, the top anti-Ebola officials in the two countries said.

International assistance is still desperately needed and the people of both countries must redouble efforts to stop the disease, which has infected more than 13,000 people and killed nearly 5,000, the officials said.
